My questions for preflop are:1. Is QJs better as a squeeze or cold call? How does CO being recreational+blinds being on a reggy side influence range I should be playing?2. Not sure about sizing of squeeze - 4-5x the raise is ok? Went bigger to build a pot vs rec.

I decided to go for a checkback. Board is good for his range, SPR is already low and vs a check/raise I'm gonna have a hard decision. Also it's hard to predict what a recreational can do. By checking I can realize my equity and I need only 2 streets for value to get the stacks in.

Scary card comes on the turn but it should be scary for his range and not mine.. I need 25% equity but I guess I have implied odds - he's a recreational and might overplay some TPGK type of hands.

I guess this squeeze is both for value and to isolate and play IP with recreational

I thinkI have a value bet here. He might call with stuff like Qx but also FD, backdoor FD and straight draw type hands like 89,54 and gutshots T8,T9, 43 and also 7x or 6x like A7,A6 etc.Should I go higher sizing to give a worse price to draws?

This card is propably good for him and I was not sure if I should make another thin v bet? Decided to checkback and try to go to showdown.

Can I assume here that his top pair top/good kicker hand types (AQ,KQ) are going to c-bet flop most of the time?

What do you think of this call? If he has some kind of medium pocket pair that he c/b on the flop then my call is questionable as he will realize his equity on river? Im only hoping he has AK,AJ type of hand and decided to stab vs me shoving a weakness both flop and turn.

Coming back to the flop, I assumed that he doesnt have AQ by checking it and I have a clear valuebet here vs AK, Ax type of hands so I made a raise

thanks :) You say that we have direct odds vs many valuehands like AA/KK without a heart but why this suit is important here as there are no 3 heart cards on board?
By having direct odds you mean that my equity vs lets say range of QQ+ and AT,KT is higher than 29% needed for a turn call?
